Scope of Service

Hospital Scope of Services

Posted on by Healthcare InfoGuide

The hospital should clearly defined the services that are provided. They should be in consonance with the needs of the community.

Hospital should display the scope of services that a patient can avail at relevant and prominent places. They should displayed prominently both in English and Local Language.

The staffs in the hospital should be oriented to the services that are offered by the hospital on a regular basis. The employees especially working in the areas like reception, registration, outpatient consultation, and in-patient, which includes Wards, Day Care Unit, and ICU regularly trained about the existing services and also the new specialties that are introduced. The newly recruited should be oriented to the services offered by the hospital during the induction tour around the hospital, and also yearly on the job training given by the HODs working in the respective departments.

Some of the Scope of Services of Hospitals are listed below
